Seafood Mold Picante Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over moderate heat. Saute the shrimp with salt and pepper until just cooked, 3-4 minutes. Add the onion and cook 5-7 minutes until golden. Add the garlic, aji and poblano and cook until tender, stirring occasionally, 5-7 minutes. Add tomatoes and sugar and continue cooking for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the shrimp and lime juice. Serve garnished with Garlic Chips on top of Arroz Graneado.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. While the pan is heating, blot the fish dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Dredge in the flour, shaking off any excess. Saute the fish in the oil until just cooked through, about 4 minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove the fish to a platter. Deglaze the pan with the white wine, whisking for about 1 minute. Add the lemon juice and capers and stir. Add the butter and stir or whisk to incorporate to bring the sauce together. Pour onto the fish and garnish with the chopped parsley.

Steps:

• In a large skillet heat your EVOO and add onions and garlic sauté till onions are clear. Add the fire roasted tomatoes, and spices. Let this simmer for 20 minutes (the whole red peppers again can be increased or decreased depending on your desire for heat.
• While your sauce is simmering make your pasta - I simply used a bunch of open pasta's not enough left over for a full meal but there - so used your imagination and see what you come up with. Cook till el dente.
• While the pasta is cooking add your whole shrimp to the tomato sauce and allow to cook till shrimp are nice and pink. Try not to over cook as the shrimp gets tough with over cooking.
• Just before serving add pasta to the shrimp and tomato sauce - for garnish use a little fresh chopped parsley and serve with fresh grated parmesan cheese.
• I had some leftover peas and charred onions in the fridge and threw them in at the last minute - you can if you like pretty much add any kind of vegetable or just leave it out all together.
• Charred Onions - in a heavy cast iron skillet add 2 cups onions sliced in large slices, the skillet should be screaming hot - once onions are added lower heat to medium high , flip the onions at the 3 minute mark and then repeat - you should come up with a nice charred looking onion not burnt - charred - we love to throw these into a can of peas ....this is what was added to the recipe at the very end.

Steps:

• Bring soup to boil.
• Dissolve gelatin in shrimp liquid.
• Add soup to cream cheese and blend until smooth.

• (Preferably overnight).

Steps:

• 2. Bring tomato soup(undiluted) just to a boil. Remove from heat.
• 3. Add cream cheese and Blend in mayonnaise. Add celery, green onion, red bell pepper and shrimp.
• 4. Dissolve gelatin in hot water and add to mixture. Pour into mold and refrigerate. Serve with your favorite crackers. Enjoy!!

Steps:

• Heat soup in a small saucepan or in a microwave oven.
• In a medium bowl, stir gelatin into cold water. Mix hot tomato soup into the gelatin liquid.
• In a medium size mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and mayonnaise together. Mix soup mixture into the mayonnaise and cream cheese mixture. Mix well. Add shrimp, celery, and green onions.
• Spoon the mixture into a 1 quart mold and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, but preferably overnight. Unmold onto a serving plate before serving.

Steps:

• Dissolve gelatin in 1/2 cup cold water and let sit.
• Mix liquid crab boil (vary amount according to taste) with 1/4 cup water in small bowl. Soak seafood in crab boil mixture. (If using shrimp, cook until done first, then let soak.)
• Chop onions and pepper in food processor or blender. Slowly melt butter in skillet and sauté onion and pepper mixture until soft and onions are clear. Remove from pan and set aside.
• In the same pan used to cook the onions, add soup and cream cheese and melt over low heat until the cream cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth. Cream cheese burns easily, so stir constantly. Add dissolved gelatin and Worcestershire sauce to taste. The mixture will thicken as you stir. Turn off heat.
